Directories under /var/www/html not showing after upgrade to 1.4

[Thiago]

Server

• FOG Version: 1.4
• OS: CentOS 7

Description

Maybe this is more a apache config issue than Fog.
I have some directories under /var/www/html (iso, repos, configs) and are used with fog ipxe to boot systems and automated installs.
After upgraded to 1.4, puting in browser: http://(ip)/iso or /configs it returns with incorrect redirection error msg.
Commenting lines from /etc/httpd/conf.d/fog.conf:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /fog/api/index.php [QSA,L]

all work like expected, but not tested with the fog things (snapin, clone…)
what these lines do?

@Tom-Elliott It is not failing, the installer can get the file successfully!!!
what is not working: list directory content in browser (same behavior using Indexes option in apache)
This is not a problem because i can access file directly, but just curious about this.
Sorry for taking your time.

@Wayne-Workman i agree with your recommendation and i will implement this soon.

Thanks all you guys…

Are you searching a specific directory?

You shouldn’t be "scanning " a directory from a browser. The intent behind these lines, however, are for our API system now.

The Rules mean:
If the called url is not a file and is not a directory, redirect to the api system.

i am acessing directory with ipxe menu, like:

:centos7auto
set base http://${fog-ip}/repos/centos/base
set iso http://${fog-ip}/iso/centos7
kernel ${iso}/vmlinuz
initrd ${iso}/initrd.img
....and other things

i have no index.html or .php at /var/www/html and welcome.conf can not show his test page.

@Thiago I recommend moving your CentOS repository and ISOs to another server.

@Thiago As long as the repos/centos/base exists it should go ther to get the file. Same for iso/centos7

Is this failing?

@Thiago I think that’s what I needed to know.

If you need the directory listing, you might be better creating an index.php file that will generate the list of files for you.

You can even make them links so you could test downloads.

The idea is we use an API now and if the index file doesn’t exist (which it’s attempting to locate) it will attempt to redirect through the API. I just needed clarity on whether there was an actual issue of which you just let us know there wasn’t. It was just your “testing” that was failing (which is helpful, but not requried).
